    Flowmaster Axle-back

    I wouldn't know how the Magnaflow sounds, I don't think too many people have heard them side by side. As for sound clips, unless you are taking the sound clip with the same microphone and recording system in both cases, it's pretty useless.... the microphones on most digital cameras people are...

    Exhaust Question....

    Flowmaster hasn't made a muffler specific for the 2005 Mustang yet. I know, my car was at their shop for 4 days of R&D. They tried their stock Super40's and 40's and didn't find the sound they wanted. They never got around to making a pipe set while my car was there, spent the whole time playing...

    Anyone buying for "collector" status?

    Name a few collectible cars that were mass produced in the 100K-units/year range since 1973, that retained their value, etc. There are no ~new~ mass-produced classics. Those days are gone.

    Flowmaster Axle-back

    Ah, sorry, I meant to say "Flowmaster emailed me back, and said that the dyno runs showed no measurable difference". Not that I don't trust them, but I haven't seen the runs. If there were any areas where the Flowmasters produced a small DECREASE in horsepower, they wouldn't want to tell...

    Flowmaster Axle-back

    Zero gains from this off-the-shelf muffler over the stock RPM range. Flowmaster is going to develop a new muffler from the ground up to get the sound they want (more agressive) while getting a measurable gain in performance. When I get independent dyno work done, I'll try to validate their...

    05 Air Box silencer?

    Mine fell out of my car too! No discernable difference.

    What is the best way to launch an Auto Trans

    And if you have the stock P-Zero Nero's, they really do pick up and hold a lot of pebbles in the tread. More so than a more blocky tread.

    Flowmaster Axle-back

    I a re-posting this into this forum (it's on another well known site as well). ====================== Well, after leaving my car with Flowmaster for a few days, I got it back. WARNING, the results here are NOT what they are going to be offering as a kit! Background: I contacted...

    05GT DYNO NUMBERS!!

    Why don't you stop shouting and go out and do it yourself? Are you short either the 2005 GT, the cash for the dyno, or both?

    05GT DYNO NUMBERS!!

    Cars run in the range of 12.5:1 which is twice as lean that aircraft.... It's not called the AIR:FUEL ratio for nothing...

    05 Mustang WITH flowmasters!! Pics AND video inside!!

    Gears- As you noted, it's absolutely critical, if you are interested in sound quality, that you buy the Flowmasters designed for your application. My car has been at Flowmaster's R&D facility for 2 days now, and they appear to be doing it "right". Here is the word from Flowmaster as of...

    MUSTANG GT,MUSTANG COBRA,PORSCHE BOXSTER S

    That's a pretty uninformed statement. The Boxster S (not the Boxster) is basically as fast as the entry level 911, cheaper, and is a cabriolet. It's the best damn deal that Porsche had. In fact, Porsche had to differentiate by adding more ponies to the 911 later, because the Boxster was a...

    265 rwhp IS at least 300 crank. Your point is.... ?

    Raced an 05 gt.

    And that's not a problem. Really, that was directed at the "racers" who are trying to read something into every single story they hear about. If they had read closely, you stopped after 2nd gear. That means it was a quick blast for both of you, and if all the internet/magazine racers here...

    Raced an 05 gt.

    So you raced for less than 5 seconds. How much would I learn from a single race of less than 5 seconds? Not much.

    05 Mustang WITH flowmasters!! Pics AND video inside!!

    I'll let you all know how mine sounds when I get it back. My car is at Flowmaster, they are designing their h-pipe-back system over the next few days, on my car. Their R&D guy says that they will likely settle on their newer Super40 for this vehicle. The 50 series is probably too large to...

    05 Mustang WITH flowmasters!! Pics AND video inside!!

    The 2005 GT already does the rip/snort/burble exhaust thing. This exhaust may just exaggerate it a bit. If you don't like to hear your exhaust cackle/burp, the 2005 Mustang GT (even stock) isn't for you!

    Alright...fess-up! Who are you trying to impress??

    Here are my multitude of reasons: I've owned 4 Mustangs (2 60's, 2 80's Foxes) and always loved the Mustang. First one I had when I was 17 was a '66 2+2 (fastback to you heathens) I saw the Trilogy video before I knew the 2005 was all new... when I saw it, I said "GOTTA HAVE IT" When I...
